Hello,
Some of you might find this of use...
I have recently taken some time to create a script that will automatically
expand the fourth partition of a Technologic Systems SD card to take up the
full capacity of your SD card (works with JFS and EXT3).
For example, say you have the 512MB SD image for a TS-7350 or TS-7800 and you
have just imaged a 4GB SD card with it. Now, you want to take advantage of the
additional 3.5GB for Debian. Simply run this script like "grow_sd /dev/sdb"
(assuming /dev/sdb is the device node where your SD card was enumerated; use
"fdisk -l" to find out) and the script will do it for you.
You can download this script here (may need to "right-click -> save target
as..." to download):

I tested it out on a couple of different cards (both jfs and ext3) with
success. Just remember to back up your data. This script doesn't come with
any sort of warranty. ;)
Be sure to check out the comments within the script for more information.
